By the editors · 2 min readYlang-ylang's tropical floral sweetness opens alongside bergamot's citrus shimmer and pink pepper's subtle sparkle. Freesia adds a soft aqueous quality that bridges to iris's powdery earthiness and mimosa's fuzzy yellow floral texture. Vanilla and tonka bean create a creamy sweet base, while white musk provides a clean skin-hugging trail. Tobacco lends a dry hay-like nuance that contrasts the sweetness without overwhelming it. The scent evolves from floral brightness to a musky vanillic dry-down with moderate projection. Ideal for spring evenings and semi-formal occasions where its polished floral character shines.
